Ow ouch wow, thought a piece of hay was poking me, nope wasp stinging me on the lower ankle, wearing flip flops...great place to be stung going on vacation next week an have to walk thousands of miles....
Just went to go outside to pick night crawlers, reached up to grab a pack of cigars on back room shelf, ouch wow something poked me, wth, wasp...

We had to put a 6 week old down during the switch over. Classic MD paralysis. We kept hoping she would fight it into remission but when she stopped eating we knew things weren't going to go the way we hoped. I have one rooster who isn't doing well. Poor boy just keeps getting one infection after another. He limped around for two days and now his whole foot is ballooned up. We thought maybe bumble foot. No kernel but a definite puncture of some sort. He's on antibiotics and soaks now and the whole flock is on antibiotics just to cover in case he has a staph or strep infection in the foot. Two months ago he had some sort of throat infection.

Good news is so far the rest of the OEGBs are looking good. I keep hoping for things to settle down with the Standard sized flock. Thanks for asking Banty.

Thanks @mlm Mike. The testing alone is about to do me in! They ended up saying it was not a portosystemic shunt issue, then went to a neuro issue, neuro said they couldn't find anything wrong; now they are worried about her possibly having a bone marrow problem (i.e. cancer). She's only 7 months, so they kept saying that is highly unlikely, won't know for about two more weeks. :(

Oh no. I'm sorry to hear that. It's going to be a long two weeks. I hope they find something treatable.
